The Moistest Apple Cinnamon Cake

I'm back!!! Yes, back from my 17 wonderful days in Boston and New York where I indulged myself with great food, shopping, culture, " me-time" and everything else that I'm entitled to. But, everything that is good must come to an end, and yours truly is back on the daily grind..... and indeed what a week!

My daughter surprised me a couple of nights ago. There was a bake sale in school and of course she told me last minute. This was around 8 at night and i wasn't at all in no mood to leave the house and go to the supermarket. I saw three apples in my fruit basket and without hesitation I thought apple cake it is. This cake is super moist and super easy to make, with lots of flavor. I hope you like it, it's one of my go-to recipes. You can change the apples to bananas or even carrots, yes... carrots!!! I topped it with a quick chocolate ganache and just to be extra naughty I sprinkled finely chopped white chocolate on top.
